Aerobic and resistance exercise can significantly improve physical performance in patients living with metastatic breast cancer according to new results presented at the Advanced Breast Cancer Eighth International Consensus Conference (ABC8) today (Friday).

Higher levels of greenness are associated with lower risks of hospital admissions for mental disorders, finds an analysis of data from seven countries over two decades, published in the BMJ's climate issue today.

Lethal lettuce in Missouri. Murderous onions in Colorado. To biochemists at the University of Oklahoma, these aren't just headlines – they're warnings of the risks posed by drug-resistant bacteria and the human cost of inaction.

Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a novel biomaterial-based system that induces the formation of tertiary lymphoid-like structures, or TLSs.

Adolescents who were vaccinated against COVID-19 were less likely to develop long COVID after their first SARS-CoV-2 infection than unvaccinated peers, finds a new study.

Fewer than half of young adults with severely high low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), or "bad" cholesterol, levels start taking a statin within five years of first high LDL-C measurement, according to a study published in JACC, the flagship journal of the American College of Cardiology, and presented at the American Heart Association's 2025 Scientific Sessions.

A new study reveals that while the Harvard Healthy Eating Pattern aligns with SNAP benefits, the Mediterranean and DASH diets often exceed allowable costs, particularly for individuals with higher calorie needs, highlighting a systemic “poverty tax” on healthy eating.

Adults diagnosed with a concussion may be at about 50 per cent higher risk of a subsequent traffic crash, finds a new study from researchers at ICES and Sunnybrook Research Institute.

By creating high-resolution cellular and molecular visual maps of lung cancer before and during development, researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that the earliest stages of lung cancer may be driven by inflammation, suggesting that targeting proinflammatory pathways could be an early intervention approach.

Over-the-counter pain medications work as well or better than opioids after wisdom tooth extraction for both men and women, according to a Rutgers Health-led follow-up to a landmark paper on comparative pain relief.

Type 1 diabetes is caused by an insufficient production of the hormone insulin by cells in the pancreas called beta cells and estimated to affect 9.5 million people worldwide.

A rigorous systematic review of the present state of knowledge on the use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and the risk of specific neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), such as autism and ADHD, offers reassurance that acetaminophen does not increase the risk of NDDs.

The drug finerenone has a positive effect on patients with type 1 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

Nearly 20 million people die every year from cardiovascular diseases, the leading cause of death worldwide.

Two new studies being presented at the 2025 American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando shed light on how hereditary angioedema (HAE) – a rare, potentially life-threatening disease which causes unpredictable swelling – profoundly affects the daily lives, emotional wellbeing, and medical experiences of young patients and their caregivers.

Creatine supplementation may modestly reduce depressive symptoms, but the effect is small, uncertain, and likely influenced by study bias. The evidence remains of very low quality, highlighting the need for larger, well-designed clinical trials.

Lowering the transcription factor PU.1 reprograms microglia into a neuroprotective, lymphoid-like state that compacts amyloid, blocks tau spread, and preserves synapses in Alzheimer’s disease. Microglial CD28 signaling helps restrain inflammation, revealing a regulatory switch that may inform future immunotherapies targeting microglia rather than neurons.

A new pilot RCT in children with celiac disease found that a single counselling session using a Gluten-Free Food Guide (GFFG) temporarily improved diet quality, variety, and milk intake but the benefits faded within six months. Ongoing support may be essential for lasting dietary change.

Long-term, low doses of THC mitigate many harmful side effects and inflammation caused by HIV and antiretroviral therapy (ART), according to new research from Texas Biomedical Research Institute.

A team of scientists at the University of Seville has identified an essential process that protects DNA integrity in reproductive cells, providing new clues about how organisms avoid genetic defects during egg formation.
